2 Choose the Color Server from the Printer menu, and then choose Adobe Photoshop from the 
menu beneath the Printer menu.
3 Choose an Encoding method. 
N
OTE
If you choose 
JPEG
 encoding, save a backup of the original image with 
binary encoding until you see the printed results of the JPEG file. Occasionally, the 
compression used for JPEG encoding produces unwanted 
artifacts
. If you see unexpected 
results in the printed output of a JPEG file, revert to the binary version.
4 Choose Same as Source from the Profile menu to specify the color space for printing 
the image.
Any other setting causes Photoshop to convert image data to that color space before sending it 
to the Color Server.
5 Click Print.
Advanced tips for using PostScript color management
Use the following information to implement alternative, more complex, color workflows with 
Photoshop.
N
OTE
To use PostScript color management with Photoshop 6.x, choose PostScript Color 
Management from the Profile menu in the Photoshop pane of the printer driver.
Saving EPS documents with PostScript Color Management
Selecting the PostScript Color Management option when saving either a CMYK or RGB EPS 
file prompts Photoshop to embed PostScript color information—which is independent of 
ICC profile
s—in the resulting document. This information is intended for PostScript devices 
like the Color Server.
Printing RGB EPS files saved with PostScript Color Management
When you print an RGB EPS file that contains an embedded profile to the Color Server, you 
can use the working space information from the embedded RGB profile as an RGB source 
definition for Color Server 
CRDs
. To use this source color space information from the 
embedded profile with Color Server CRDs, choose None as the ColorWise RGB Source 
when you print. This applies when you print directly from Photoshop or when the same RGB 
EPS file is output from another application.
To override the embedded profile in an EPS file using an RGB Source definition made 
available by the Color Server, choose anything except None as the Color Server RGB Source 
Profile.

Printing RGB images with Photoshop PostScript Color Management 
If you select an RGB 
color space
 and decide to use PostScript Color Management, 
Photoshop sends RGB data to the Color Server along with PostScript color information 
defining this RGB color space. When you select PostScript Color Management, a CRD is 
used to perform color conversions to CMYK.
N
OTE
The included RGB source color space information is overridden by the ColorWise 
RGB Source option unless it is set to None. The ColorWise Rendering Style option specified 
takes effect if the ColorWise RGB Source Profile option is set to None.
For fastest print times, choose JPEG encoding, but inspect printed output carefully 
for unwanted artifacts that may appear as a result of JPEG compression. If you see unexpected 
results in the printed output, reprint the job using Binary or ASCII encoding.
Printing CMYK EPS files saved with PostScript Color Management
If you select the Photoshop PostScript Color Management option when you save a CMYK 
EPS image, Photoshop embeds PostScript color information that defines the CMYK source 
color space of the image. When you print a CMYK EPS file that contains PostScript color 
information to the Color Server, CRDs are used instead of ColorWise CMYK Simulation 
and Simulation Method settings. Choose the appropriate setting for the Rendering Style 
option.

Printing CMYK graphics with Photoshop PostScript Color Management
If you select a CMYK color space and decide to use PostScript Color Management, 
Photoshop sends CMYK data to the Color Server along with PostScript color information 
defining this CMYK color space. When you select PostScript Color Management, a CRD is 
used to perform color conversions to the CMYK color space of the Color Server.
The destination color space for the CRDs is determined by the RGB Separation print option. 
If RGB Separation is set to Simulation, the CMYK graphic is printed according to all 
specified CMYK Simulation Profile and CMYK Simulation Method settings. If RGB 
Separation is set to Output, the CMYK graphic is converted to the CMYK color space of the 
selected output profile.
Setting the Color Server print option Spot Color Matching to On has an effect only if you use 
the Photoshop Multi-Channel feature to define spot channels and then save the image in EPS 
format and open it in another application. For more information see your Photoshop 
documentation.
Photoshop converts 
spot colors
 to CMYK values when you work in CMYK mode.
• If the graphic was separated for an offset press standard, apply the corresponding CMYK 
Simulation setting. For example, if the graphic is separated for SWOP, choose SWOP as 
the CMYK Simulation setting. 
• If Photoshop is configured for a custom separation using a 
ICC profile
, choose the 
corresponding profile for the ColorWise CMYK Simulation option. 
The previous custom simulation setting requires that the same profile used for separation in 
Photoshop also resides on the Color Server. For more information about downloading 
CMYK Simulation profiles to the Color Server with ColorWise Pro Tools, see 
Color Printing
.

This chapter provides instructions for printing color documents from Adobe InDesign, 
Adobe PageMaker, and QuarkXPress.
Before printing from these applications, make sure the appropriate printer driver and the 
Color Server PostScript printer description file 
(PPD)
 are installed on your computer, as 
described in 
Printing from Windows
 or 
Printing from Mac OS
Adobe InDesign 2.0.1 and 1.5.2
The following sections outline the recommended settings for using Adobe InDesign with the 
Color Server.
InDesign color settings
When using ColorWise color management, turn off the InDesign color management features.
